Scientific Fight with Triangular
Swords.

The New York San, in its account OF
the fencing match which took place in
New Yora the other day between NM.
Senac and Tronchet for the champion
ship, thus describes the contest with
duelling swords
The swordsmen seized the triangular
duelling swords and began the deciding
assault. The swords had round steel
guards that echoed clear as q bell when
struck by the blades. They fought as
men do on the field in Paris, and made
things feveIishly exciting for the club
men. Senac broke the end of his sword
in thrust that would have pierced
Tronchet's heart in q genuine duel. He
flung the broken weapon aside, and,
Selling another, had scarcely made q
single parry when Tronchet struck him
on the right chest. Then Senac cut
him on the right leg, and Tronchet
drove his sword at Senac right above
his red belt. Then he pierced him in
the neck, and then doubled his blade
in home thrust at his breast. The
fighting was so hot that Referee Cour-
bisier had touse a sword to defend him
self as he looked on. Once he got a
cut across the back of his hand that
drew the blood. The men sprang
at each other almost viciously, and for
the third time Senac, with brilliant
display of art, sent his adversary's wea-
pom flying out of his hand. He was
evidently enraged, and in another col
lision made wicked lunge straight
down at the face of the crouching Iron
Chef. Friends of Senac joined the par
tisans of Tronchet in disappearing
misses. Tronchet got his revenge, how
ever, at once, by thrust at Senac's
breast that bent bis weapon double. 1t
was the last thrust of the match. Iron
chet had won.

TWO WEE TRAVELLERS.
A Boy OF Ten and a Girl of Three
Cross the Continent Alone.

A Pittsburgh special says Two small
travellers, who had no one to look after
them, attracted special attention at the
Union station in this city this morning.
One was Emil Rorck, ten years OF age,
and the other Gussie Borck, three years
of age. Attached to the coat of the
older boy was card, on which was
written the address of their father, ID.
J. Borck, of AZ Third avenue, New
York, to whom the children were being
sent.
The story of the elder boy was that
his mother had left her home and taken
her two children to San Francisco.
There she left them and they were
taken in charge by benevolent people,
who placed them in an orphan asylum.
Their father heard where they were and
sent for them. They had travelled all
the way alone from San Francisco to
this city, en- route for New York. On
the train several ladies connected with
a theatrical company had befriended
the little fellows. They arrived here at
3 o'clock this morning Specialize
tective Tom Pendergast got the chill
dren hearty breakfast, and sent them
on their journey in q happy humor.
The father of the children is an engi-
neer employed on the New York Cen
trail railroad. This is the first time, it
is said, that two children of such ex-
IRENE youth have crossed the continent
alone

lie Killed His Man and Buried
Him.

A jacksonville Fla.) special says
A handful of loose dirt has led to the
detection CT brutal murder IN the
town of Seffner, in Hillsboro' county,
this State. Last Monday Donald b.
Hall, twenty-three years old, myste.
riously disappeared from his place OF
business in that town, but no effort was
made to find him until Wednesday,
when Justice r. Greene heard that he
had had dispute with II. r. Gibson,
an extensive banana planter living south
Of ihe town.
Gibson is !. wealthy man, but he bears
h hard reputation, and he was arrested
on suspicion. The search for young
Hall was continued without success
until late Saturday afternoon, when a
farmers boy noticed few traces OF
white sand mixed with the mould OF
Gibson's banana plantation. Further
investigation showed there was trail
formed by the sand leading to the CEN
tire OF the inclosure. These plantations
are hoed over every day and the trail
ives very hard to follow, but it was
finally traced to a spot where there was
a considerable deposit Of it.
The searchers began digging and I'm.
covered the body of Hall after going
down about four feet. The ground was
tightly packed, and the sand had been
used to I'LL up the hole. Hall had been
shot through the lungs. His skull was
crushed by blow from the butt of O
rife, and his head was nearly severed
from his body by a knife-cut. A coro
ner's jury found verdict OF wilful
murder against Gibson, and yesterday
he had to be removed to the Jail al
Tampa, as a party had been organized
TO lynch him. Hall owed Gibson thirty
dollars, and the murder was the result
OF dispute over the terms OF its pay
ment.

Special telegram TO the Dispatch.l
DAHvrLLE, Va, March 30.-Some
days ago a quantity of corn was stolen
from Mr.. Robert Price, who lives near

James A. Stone went to the house OF

warrant and found the corn. The Off
Ger then arrested White and lively
scene followed. Whites wife seized
Mr.. Price, who is an old man, and held
him, while White and his two sons
turned on Constable Stone and punish
ed him severely. Stone finally got
away and came here for aid. Policeman
Hambric and party of citizens went
out to Whites house, but he and one
son had gone. His wife and other son
still remained, and were armed with
axes, SO that the country folks dared
not enter the house. The woman and
her son were arrested, however, by the
Danville party and carried before
Justice of the peace.

Raron Duradd Dies Once Too often.

The extraordinary mortality in the
family of the Baron Quradd excited the
suspicious of the French customs police
after that gentleman crossed the Bel
gian boundary four times in as many
months, travelling each time with o
hermetically-sealed coffin and bathed
in tears over the demise of some near
relative. The last time they opened
the coffin against his fearful remon-
strances, and found in it, instead of a
corpse, mass of fine cigars and ex-
pensive smoking-tobacco, upon which
no duty had been paid. The Baron
mourns now in the jail at Lille.
